“Today’s visit w the children in Texas impacted @FLOTUS greatly. If media would spend their time & energy on her actions & efforts to help kids – rather than speculate & focus on her wardrobe – we could get so much accomplished on behalf of children. #SheCares #ItsJustAJacket,” tweeted Melania Trump’s spokeswoman Stephanie Grisham.
Melania Trump boarded a plane to head to McAllen, Texas, for a surprise visit to the family separation crisis at the southern border. Trump was spotted wearing a coat with these words on the back: “I really don’t care. Do U?”
Unlike Grisham, President Trump didn’t believe it was just a jacket. He tweeted,”‘I REALLY DON’T CARE, DO U?’ written on the back of Melania’s jacket, refers to the Fake News Media. Melania has learned how dishonest they are, and she truly no longer cares!”
It seems quite unlikely that Trump would choose to throw on such a controversial jacket to a visit like this.
According to a 2018 New York Times report, this is true especially because this time around Mrs. Trump chose to wear something from the mass market brand Zara — Zara! — instead of her usual Dolce & Gabbana or Ralph Lauren. This is a first lady, after all, who decided to wear a $1,380 Balmain plaid shirt during a White House gardening initiative. She is not a high/low dresser in public — or has never been since the election. She’s been all high seemingly all the time.
This controversial fashion choice has caught the attention of many news outlets.

It’s almost comical to see how President Trump desperately tries to tie every event he can to his agenda and abusive ideology. I would not be surprised if he didn’t even know that Melania was going to use the jacket.
